I just want to share a link for those who are not subscribe to the official Sun Microsystems’ email newletter.. (what?! You’re not subscribed?!)
Anyway, the link will forward you to a form where you need to fill up some personal information (it’s from Sun, so there will be no selling of email or spamming there). Once you’re done with that, go read and study Solaris Virturalization!
Enjoy!
Just want to note here steps on how to setup your own custom name server from your registrar. In my case, I had to do it on GoDaddy.

Here’s the detailed job:
FireFTP is an FTP program that works within the Firefox Web browser. Well, Firefox is not actually a full-pledge program but a Firefox plugin or addon. The best thing about this ftp client is that it’s FREE! (Just like any other open source applications/software).
If you’re not familiar with Firefox, it’s an open source web browser and I suggest you use it right now. Trash that IE and start using Firefox (or Google Chrome – cooler!).
File transfer protocol (FTP) is how we send large files from one computer to another using the Internet — not an e-mail attachment.
